Solution
Step-growth polymerization refers to a type of polymerization mechanism in which bi-functional or multifunctional monomers react to form first dimers, then trimers, longer oligomers and eventually longchain polymers.
Nylon-6,6 is the polymer formed by Step growth polymerization.Its monomers are Adipic acid HOOC(CH2)4COOH and hexa-methylene diamine NH2(CH2)6NH2
